Robert -
   Have you cleaned your corona wire? Use a Q-tip or the supplied wand
(it comes with your toner cartridge) to clean the corona wire (the toner
cartridge usually comes with the instructions where to find it).

   It *should* fix your problems. Otherwise, you have a dud printer 
cartridge, the electrostatic roller isn't being electrostatic. A new
cartridge should fix *that*.
